DT Moton says he's at Woodlawn now

Defensive tackle T.D. Moton's saga took another twist Thursday when he said enrolled at Woodlawn High School on Thursday and will start school Friday.

Moton, who was on Calvary's team during its Week 1 loss to Parkway, said he will "more than likely" play football at Woodlawn, but added that he's focused on improving his grades.

"This move has nothing to do with football," Moton said. "I need to focus on my grades."

Moton's home district is Woodlawn, but he expressed a desire Wednesday to transfer to Parkway, where he played as a freshman. Moton, who has college offers from LSU and Southern California among others, would not have been eligible to play at Parkway until 2014.

Woodlawn football coach Jerwin Wilson declined to comment when asked about Moton.

Moton's immediate eligibility is unclear after studying the LHSAA Handbook. He could be ineligible for 30 days after enrolling at Woodlawn because he didn't transfer within the first 12 school days of the new academic year. Another scenario suggests Moton might be ineligible for an entire calendar year because he initially chose Calvary and then transferred to Woodlawn, which share an "attendance zone" under LHSAA rules.
